Who is the bigger nincompoop?

Theresa May and Labour’s Diane Abbott seem to be competing for the biggest nincompoop award in this election campaign. I think Diane Abbott is slightly more incompetent than Theresa May and even worse is that she’s the shadow home secretary during a campaign with two terrorist attacks. The home secretary is the person responsible for national security, among other things.

In this interview on Sky News it’s obvious she doesn’t understand the question. Why not just say, “I don’t understand, can you elaborate?”. There’s only one thing worse than a politician who doesn’t know what he/she is talking about and that’s a politician who pretends to know what they’re talking about.

It’s not surprising that both Labour and the Conservatives have kept Abbott and May away from TV debates as much as possible. Is it possible they’re just nervous or are they really nincompoops? I still haven’t decided who to vote for.
